If we have observed the Hummingbirds in Baton Rouge, Louisiana between middle of November to early March, then these Hummingbirds are considered as Winter migration of Hummingbirds.

There are several locations which well known for winter migration of this tiny birds. Some of them are:

- Black-chinned Hummingbirds
- Broad-tailed Hummingbirds

    What wonderful birds hummers are - we dont have any in Australia (or the UK!) so my changes of seeing them rely on travel - and I always get very excited when I see them!

    Hope all is well, Stewart M - Oakhill, Somerset.

    We love our humming birds! The most common one we see here in PA is the Ruby-throated bird. We feed them up to the end of Sept. Looking forward to their return!!

    I love watching these little birds. I was reading about them last year and I did not realize that they come back to the same area every year. Last year we had about 4 that were constant.

    It's such a treat to see a hummer. We have them here but don't see them often.
